In addition to the multiple majors within the College of Engineering, there are also 3 minors students could partake in. Students often have minors in areas that their specific major does not touch on and that they personally are interested in.

Moving on campus can be a big change for a student going into their first year at college. From making life-long friends to creating EGR study groups, Michigan State’ Live On and Engineering’s CoRe programs will help you make the best of your first year in the dorms.
